of ukraine, mr. oleksandr is already with us, mr. oleksandr, congratulations, sincere congratulations, you are now, if, you are probably following the events in georgia right now, and tell us, please, what stage is the situation there now, i understand that the opposition deputies refuse to participate in the meetings, the president of georgia also refused to recognize the election results and demands, demands re-elections, that is, i say conditionally. the opposition has made its move, its bet, now it's up to the georgians, yes, it's up to the georgians, well, you noticed correctly that somehow the number of protesters should have been somewhat larger, and it is obvious that these forces were not enough even during the elections , and now during the protest events, well between. we know that the united

states of america denied georgia the status of partnership, the european union actually blocked. direction, well, in response, the government itself, uh, declared that by the end of the 28th year it, so to speak, will not yet conduct negotiations on, on advancing in the european integration direction, that is, joining the european union. we know that there are statements by the leaders of the european union. uh, quite serious, which call on the officials to still hold repeat elections, so for now on this there is no agreement, you know, that's why there are protests among the local

population and we'll see if there really is this base in the pro-european opposition , sufficient support among the population to force... the government to make concessions , judge, there are a lot of rumors, some testimonies, some photos too, actually the protesters think that they see among those special forces who are participating in the dispersal of these demonstrations, ah, some non-georgians, that is, these are people of either asian appearance or some kind of slavic or some other appearance. that they believe that it is the russians who are throwing their russian, er , russian police officers at some of these for filing these protests, well, and they note some cruelty, perhaps unjustified, well, we saw, for example, there i am on the video,

a police officer is kicking a person right in the head, and at the same time she does not offer any resistance, well, it looks kind of scary, of course, yes. on a woman. therefore, of course, such things are unacceptable, the european union condemns it. did some of the russians send their representatives, well, it is necessary photos, at least, yes, we need some things. well, you remember, and on the maidan, too , there was a situation periodically that, that, that special forces were sent from russia and so on, that they were participating. in these events and so on, there are certain suspicions, there is a possibility of involving the russian side more actively, meanwhile , we need more evidence, because if this is really shown and proven, then this is a very serious blow to the image of moscow

and a serious blow to the european opposition. the student, in your opinion, why are such no no not so... not so supports a strong opposition, for example, georgian, georgians, in this case, were they really scared of the threats of their right-wing party, that there will be a retribution for this and that a big war will come around the corner, well, it is not excluded and all this is used very actively, here are these abuses regarding the videos that show ukraine. destroyed by war and so on, of course, that affects the moral, physical state of many georgian voters, so i must say that there is a solid pro-european

line among a considerable number of people, but the majority cannot think that it is possible to go calmly and so on with some other. go, especially since the government hints that there are some agreements with moscow, that it will cede south ossetia and abkhazia to them, of course, that this is also a serious factor, it is not said, it is very open, but between the lines, which also affects, in the opinion of many georgian voters, and of course the situation in ukraine also directly. affects the situation in georgia, well, conditionally, if the ukrainian army were to attack now, believe me, the georgian opposition would have won these elections, while we see the russian army's offensive and so on, the shelling of kyiv, putin's threats, then the situation that is,

the studio, we can actually show that this video, actually where, where a policeman, at least someone in a georgian uniform. a policeman beats a woman who is lying, already almost unconscious, and look, he beats. and it is clear that some other policemen come up later and look or what happened, but to explain how, why this is happening, whether it could really be a georgian, well, but this is of course just some of our already emotional reactions to the video, which is close to us, hurts, because we saw something similar in 2014-2013, i will ask about... mr. oleksandr, should there be some kind of ukrainian position, does the ukrainian

voice, the voice of kyiv, sound in this situation in support of those georgians who choose a european georgia, who definitely choose the fight against the russian occupier, do we give this signal to the georgians that we are with you? well, officially we condemn the acts of violence, this minister of the interior said that... violence against peaceful demonstrations is unacceptable, in a country that is either joining the european union, is a candidate, is trying to join, or is even in existence, if it is a civilized country and so on, this cannot happen, peaceful protest is guaranteed by the legislative acts of any democratic country, so expressing dissatisfaction, disagreement and so on, it is obvious that we... are also in the vanguard of the european union's politicians, who insist on a decision

to hold repeat elections, uh, meanwhile we understand, that the georgian authorities are abusing the topic of ukraine, they want, they have already said more than once that a revolution should take place in georgia according to the ukrainian scenario, and this is all planned from abroad, so we need to be... very careful in our actions, in our comments , and so on, because, because the attacks can be more specific, and ukraine first of all does not need this, on the other hand, we are demonstrating our solidarity with those who took to the streets, in the context of democratic processes, but all that some changes should take place there, it all depends exclusively. from the georgian people and the political will of the main social

and political actors on the territory of the georgian state. studio, do i understand correctly that we do not have an ambassador in georgia of ukraine now? it seems to me that there is no ambassador there, yes. and this is also some kind of strange situation, is georgia really not important for us, again, we still do not have an ambassador in moldova, and this is already going on. months literally, this is since danilov was supposedly appointed there after he was removed from the national security and defense council as secretary, he allegedly did not appoint himself, also some kind of story, well, it seems that it is not accepted at the state level, and somewhere some stupid smokers did not agree on something among themselves, and well, but is moldova really unimportant for us, well , there are also some other positions on ambassadors, where it seems that the ambassador is the opposite and superfluous one, that... now there is, i will not point the finger anymore, although there are definitely such countries there

, like, i will show well, for example, the same slovenia, where there are a lot of questions to the ambassador, or even the same switzerland, which is very important and there is no feeling, that we have a professional mission there, in short, some kind of chaos of foreign policy, it somehow continues, or am i mistaken, well , you should understand that i am in the ministry of foreign affairs. 92nd, now i have not been in the ministry of foreign affairs for six years, so in any case , filling all the ambassadorial vacancies has never happened, never, never, to be honest, well , this number of vacancies that there is, maybe in wartime it should be different, but somewhere on average, as it always was, and there may be other countries, countries there i remember france, we have two years with something there was no

ambassador and paris asked us will it be like this or will it not be somewhere on the border of 2000-99 and so on that's why this country is unimportant there are many different subjective factors that influence it well nevertheless so such is the situation that there are here comments on this. and when it will be, the best can give, of course, the ministry of foreign affairs itself, here, but by the number of untouched ambassadors... and then it is somewhere spinning in that in the same in the same number as it was before, it does not mean that it is correct, it does not mean, that this is correct, but, but it's the way it's always been, uh, is it saving money, i don't know, maybe it's saving money, it's not ruled out

, it's not ruled out that some candidate can't be agreed upon, there could be many factors and so on, studio. we still have two minutes left, regarding the united states, well, here the issue is definitely not about money, not about saving, it's extremely important for us to have a good strong ambassador in washington, and as for oksana markarova and what resignation did johnson, who remained the speaker of the congress, demand, we understand, that this is a serious moment, and there were ideas, for example, to replace him with andriy melnyk, the former ambassador to the united states in the russian federation. well, the american tradition, for example, the new president will all resign, after which the americans, including in kyiv, that they submit their resignations, and there they will either accept the resignation or not, well, if the chairman

of one of the permanent houses of representatives from... stated such things, then of course it was taken into account, well, you saw and it seems and heard that there are other candidates besides andriy melnyk, including regarding the fact that to represent ukraine in the new administration of president trump, and it will be easier for the new ambassador to work, given that there cannot be any things related to his excessive communication with the democrats, and it is impossible to communicate with the democrats if they are actually in the majority, in power, so the ambassador will be appointed 100% new, maybe andriy melnyk and very well, if he is, if not, then we will see who, who exactly it will be, the country is very

important for us, in today's situation, apparently, this is a diplomatic position, ambassadorial number one. so of course, it is necessary to proceed from the fact that this person was received in washington by the highest echelons of power, and this person was, so to speak , professionally prepared. andriy melnyk himself, by the way, when he was deputy minister, he led the american direction, so that means he is up to date on the american topic, well, now he is an ambassador in brazil, so it is american. continent, somewhere too, some understanding of how the western hemisphere lives there, so it is not excluded that he will be there too, we just congratulate his, studio, thank you very much for the conversation, and a little clarification is needed oleksandr levchenko, diplomat, ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary of ukraine, was with us, we talked a little about the protests in georgia,

about their prospects, well, and also about whether the resignation of the ukrainian ambassador to the united states is inevitable, who can replace her. we will now take a short break. thank you for watching the espresso tv channel and our marathon. and for our part, we guarantee you honesty and impartiality. stay with us. i am happy, infinitely happy for you, for myself, that we have such categories of goods. friends, those who have already started to see badly, cannot read small text, you bring the book almost to your nose to read, but the fact is that this is not a way out of the situation, we use a magnifying glass that you have to hold in your hands, it is inconvenient, so there is only one way out of the situation, it is,

yes, everything is wrong, tragically, as it seems, and i have two pairs of eyepieces, plus these glasses, uh... which enlarge the image by 160%, imagine 160%. 4909 uah, but that 's not all, because we have a promotion today, only today until the end of this broadcast, and the broadcast is less than an hour away, so yes, you order one pair and as a gift you take the second pair of eyepieces, imagine, take them for yourself. take someone as a gift, take two pairs of eyepieces for yourself, wear one, by the way, well, that's how it is, you left one at home, for example, yes, in plain sight, you know what you have at home... the other pair was thrown into your handbag, because you often, you know, we go out, we forget, they are very cool in that, just because they fold, pay attention, that is, this is such a, you know, travel version, you

fold them, a very convenient cool case, so that they don't crack, don't break into these glasses, and please, carry them with you, pay attention, they fold like a transformer into a small enough size, tiny, that you can even put it in a cosmetic bag. with glasses, now i will show you again how they unfold and enlarge the image by 160%, so that you don't have to squint anymore, don't ask someone to read, because often grandmothers also came up to me, child, what is written here, girl, tell me what is printed here and so on, with brackets, respectively, which fix these glasses on your, on your nose bridge and enlarge the image, that is, you sat down to read something, you don't need to hold it, let your hands be free. something else, you know, do with them, put on these glasses, even go out like that, they are absolutely not embarrassing, these glasses are for reading up close, like some book,

so they actually went into the store, read a label on some product, they also got these glasses, those who work there in front of computers, for example, have poor vision, so friends, take two pairs of glasses today for 499 uah, this is what they look like, they fold up, and you carry them in a case, you left some at home, the others you threw in your handbag, in your permanent one, with which you constantly walk, and you will never forget them, because the second pair will be with you all the time, high quality hypoallergenic material, medical alloy, that is, this means that there will be no negative skin reaction, and so on, for 499 uah, better than... these glasses, the same magnifying glass, by 160%, it enlarges the image, and you no longer have to look closely,

that is, squint, to understand and see what is depicted there, what is written there, for 499 uah you order two pairs today, you order for yourself, two pairs of glasses arrive... a gift for mom, dad, a friend, who needs it, why did i start this conversation, that it's still there after 30, someone there after 40, after 50, these problems, they are observed, as a rule, vision does not go into minus, namely, it goes to the plus side, that is, farsightedness develops, these are such characteristic, natural changes in our body, a magnifying glass is cool, but it often breaks, falls, plus somehow... you want to, you know, lie down on a pillow, i'm talking about myself now, so in the evening, take your phone, tablet in your hands, turn over, watch a movie, well,

watch it with a magnifying glass all the time, i don't know, it's some kind of idea, so glasses help, they are comfortable, light enough, a universal style that will be beautiful sit on any face, and so beautiful that you will not be embarrassed to go out in them and... on the street, go to work, for example, the price today is 499 uah for two pairs, after the broadcast, of course, there will be no such price. december 1 is traditionally in ukraine the day of prosecutors, this is a professional holiday of those who should be on guard against the law and together with judges actually create a sense of justice in ukraine, in fact it is a little different here, prosecutors . are often at the center of epic scandals, and in particular now the public is being discussed, they will discuss the fact that 10% of all prosecutors in ukraine turned out to be people with disability status, how

is this case currently being investigated, let's see in our story: 524 prosecutors in ukraine have the status of people with disabilities, including eight first deputies and deputy heads of regional prosecutors' offices. such data as of november this year was announced by the office. prosecutor general in response to a parliamentary request by oleksiy honcharenko. in total, 831 employees currently work in the prosecutor's office with disabilities. name me another industry where among the working people, i emphasize, these are not pensioners, we are talking to you, we are talking about working people, so that among the working people there would be such a number of people with disabilities. therefore , this figure looks unrealistically high, and... suggests that some of these people have fake disabilities, purchased disabilities, issued, well, in their case, it was probably not purchased, eh, because such people do not pay anyone,

and they themselves are used to... scandal around fake disabilities of prosecutors broke out in early october. then it became known that more than fifty prosecutors of the khmelnytsky region, led by the head oleksiy oliynyk, had issued themselves such a status in the head office of tetyana krupa, who is currently in custody. after that, the head of the khmelnytsky regional prosecutor's office, oliynyk, resigned from his post at his own request, but still works as a prosecutor of the regional prosecutor's office. but the greatest political responsibility was borne by the prosecutor general andriy kostin, who immediately resigned. i can confidently say that ukraine is the first in the world, a country that, in the conditions of an ongoing war, not only systematically documents, but also investigates war crimes, and even more , is making innovations in this area. as of today, we already have 721 suspects, 514 accused, 133 war criminals convicted.

not all systemic problems have been resolved. in two years of my work in office, therefore, according to european practice, as a person who bears political responsibility for the actions of his subordinates, i decided to submit a resignation letter. the reform of the prosecutor's office in ukraine has begun immediately after the revolution of dignity in 2014, and over the past decade it has undergone noticeable changes. in particular, there has been a purge of personnel, and such remnants of the past as general supervision, investigation, prosecutors, military uniforms have disappeared, instead of which prosecutorial self-government bodies have appeared, and the powers of the prosecutor general have been narrowed. the european commission in its second enlargement report on ukraine also noted: the prosecutor's office is formally developing and approaching the norms of eu law, which include not only specific directives, but also standards, that is, provisions of soft law. however, achieving full transparency, efficiency and compliance

with european standards still remains a challenge for the system. the fact that this needs to be put in order, well, it is clear, the whole state, all of every ukrainian, well, the story about groats, well, it is just something beyond the border, but you and i understand perfectly well that groats was just one of these corruption flows, and all these flows ended not in khmelnytskyi, but in the city of kyiv, where they poured from all regions of ukraine. and here the question is also in another. is, who covered up this whole system? currently , the prosecutor general's office, the security service of ukraine and the state bureau of investigation are actively working on the cases of disabled prosecutors. the state bureau of investigation is investigating criminal proceedings on the grounds of committing criminal offenses, which are provided for by the relevant articles of the criminal code of ukraine. in particular, we are talking about fraud, we are talking about abuse of power, we are talking about

official misconduct. and we are also talking about the use of fake documents, it is known, of course, that in order to clarify all the circumstances, at this stage of the investigation , letters with lists of citizens were sent to the ministry of health, citizens of civil servants, in order for the department to find out whether there were really sufficient grounds to grant disability to employees of state structures. as of now , checks and pre-trial investigation are ongoing, as noted in the state bureau of investigation, if violations are detected, a new appropriate investigation will be launched. tatyana golunova, espresso tv channel.
